Doctor Who: Uploaded

The Bells of St. John’s or “WiFi is EVUL! EVUL WE TELL YOU!”
Richard E. Grant uses Dolores Umbrage to “download” people but she makes a mistake when she downloads a third incarnation of Jenna Louise Coleman. So the Doctor gives Umbrage a taste of her own medicine.

We open as people all over the world connect using WiFi while some guy broadcasts a video warning. He says they might see something strange and he tells them not to click it. Because then they get a hold of the laptop and then they stalk the person. And the person then dies. Their souls get uploaded to the internet and people are screaming out for help. TVs full of people saying they don’t know where they are.

Smash: Heart Breaker

Last week on “Smash”: Tom became the director of Bombshell but had trouble with Karen. Eileen and daughter Katie worked to find a way to oust Jerry. Julia found one way while Katie used emotional blackmail. Something’s going on between Julia and Scott. Terry Falls goes all out in Liaisons but ends up in the hospital. And the show ends up shuttering, freeing up Ivy. So Karen quits so she can do Hit List and Ivy can do Bombshell. All is right with the world.

SMASH!

Nostalgia Nook: Anastasia

Yes, I know the Nostalgia Chick already did this. But I thought I’d cover it as well.

I remember being on a forum where someone blasted the Disney company for not recognizing Anastasia in their princess collection. Others agreed until I posted the movie was not a Disney one but made by Fox. The original poster thankfully thanked me for the information and apologized for blasting the Disney company. She just loved the movie and wanted the same amount of merchandising for Anastasia that the Disney princesses get. Which is understandable.

What’s my point? That Anastasia is often mistaken for a Disney movie and probably because, as the Nostalgia Chick points out, it is the most similar to the Disney formula.

In the dark of the night, there will be SPOILERS!

The Bible: The End?


Let's get the snark out of the way. As I tweeted last night: It's official, The Bible: Where No One's Name Was Ever Changed. Nope. First was Abraham and Sarah never being called Abram and Sarai, but I let that slide. And then Jesus addressed "Peter" and never "Simon." This week, they introduce Paul of Tarsus. It's almost a One Steve Limit--there was already one saul, can't have two! But there's already the precedent. Oh well. Onto the rest of the review...

And so the Bible ends.
